- At Stone Temple we’ve been tracking the level of indexation of tweets in Google search since early 2015.
- In February 2015 Google announced a renewed deal with Twitter to have access to the Twitter ‘firehose’ – all tweets in real time.
- Luckily, we had turned on our sophisticated data machinery to check Google indexation of over 138K tweets as a ”before” benchmark before the new Google firehose deal went into effect. We’d done a previous look at this back in early 2014 as well.
- We turned on our sophisticated data machinery to check Google indexation of nearly 1000 diverse Twitter accounts as a ”before” benchmark before the new Google firehose deal went into effect.
- One immediate result: new tweet carrousels showing for breaking news, trends, and individual tweets
- But tweets could also show up as regular search results.
- So we turned our data machine back on, and took another sample of tweets indexed in Google from the same group of accounts.
- Finally, in November 2016 we took a fourth look, just to see if the level of indexation had changed with any significance over the previous year.
- We expected it to go up....
- ...but it actually declined. Back almost as low as before the new deal.
- But why would they reduce the number of tweet they are indexing?
- Most likely their testing showed they needed to better optimize what was being indexed, so they tweaked the algo to tighten the parameters.
- Also Twitter is indexing tweets faster than ever (% of tweets indexed within 7 days), but still only half the tweets that it will eventually index. So other factors at play in what gets indexed.
- But then why do we see content that ranks well without significant links?
- Number of favorites has significant correlation to likelihood of getting indexed.
- So does number of retweets, but much less effect than favorites! Why? Perhaps Google knows a lot of retweets are by bots.
- Higher follower count increases chances of indexation, but effect peaked in May 2015, just as overall indexation did.
- By Followerwonk Social Authority (only measured last two studies)
- Verified accounts have an effect, but much stronger the higher the Social Authority.
- But...unverified accounts show almost no variation across social authority. Looks like verified accounts with higher authority get the win!
- One more thing...some interesting observations from Rand Fishkin...
- Where in the SERPs a tweet block will appear for a given account, or how much it will appear, may be affected by the tweet frequency and engagement of the account.
- But...unverified account show almost no variation across social authority. Looks like verified accounts with higher authority get the win!
